Goderich (Ontario) Celtic Roots Festival & College
Just came across this. I know no more than what's on the website. Goderich is a small town on the east side of Lake Huron, an area with beautiful beaches. It's an hour and a half from London, Ontario, and three hours from Windsor, Ontario and Detroit, Michigan. There's quite a selection of courses (mandolin included) and teachers at the "college," and a good lineup at the festival. The dates are: College, Aug. 1-4, 2022; Festival, Aug. 5-7, 2022.

Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
"I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."
